AN: Thanks so much to the two who reviewed. I love you guys! So this prompt was suggested to me by I'd rather live in books, and I wanted to thank you so much for that! I'd love it if more people started suggesting prompts to me. So this one can take place anytime, but I thought around "Never Been Kissed". Enjoy!
"Well, with the time we have from now till Regionals, I think we could certainly work out a detailed enough practice schedule so that we can get in all my songs that are on my set list, and with-", Rachel was suddenly interrupted by Tina.
"Rachel, I really appreciate you telling me this and stuff, but I have to get to class. You know how Ms…well you know how my teachers are, and I can't be late." She says, hoping she was polite enough.
"I understand, Tina. I can just tell you all about it all later in glee." Rachel responds still as hearty as ever. Tina nods a bit, and then quickly walks down the hall to where Mike is standing with some of his friends.
Rachel walks over to her locker, pops it open, and begins to switch some of her books. She puts in science and math, and then takes out writing. But while she is rifling through the neat stack of books, a sparkly notebook with the words "Hot Stuff" in bright pink and gold letters, accented by several stars, falls out of her locker. She bends over to pick it up, and while she is nudging it around in her locker so that it won't fall out again, she hears someone walking down the hallway. She turns and sees Karofsky and Azimio (being their usual impetuous and boisterous selves), coming around the corner, and rolls her eyes. Just ignore them, she thinks. They're just stupid football jocks who don't deserve your attention.
Kurt comes around the opposite corner, his head held high as well, and gives the smallest of smiles to Rachel as he sees her. By now, the disruptive duo has also made their way to the middle of the hall, and as Rachel watches, Dave reaches out and slams Kurt into the set of lockers. The poor boy hits the wall, and then as the jocks walk past him, fist-bumping, he slides down onto the ground and sighs heavily.
Rachel knows that she can't go and confront Azimio and Karofsky, so she just crosses the hall over to where Kurt is slumped against the wall. No words are said between the two, but as she reaches her hand down to him, it's all that needs to be said. And when Kurt takes Rachel's offered hand, and she helps him up, he thinks that even though she sure can be annoying as nails on a chalkboard sometimes, she can be a real friend when that's what needed most.
I love them as friends! "Happy Days/Get Happy" is probably my favorite duet, and they go great with each other. Thanks for reading and I'll probably update tomorrow!
